Good shop for picking up vegan bits and pieces - Edit
I find the junk food a bit bland and not too interesting. The cakes are seriously good though so worth it for that - especially the cheesecakes! The shop is also good for picking up bits n pieces e.g cheeses, sriram based meats etc

a bit meh - Edit
I was really excited to come here, and it does say vegan junk food so i should have probably known what to expect, but the savoury food was very americanised and therefore not quite to my taste, i ordered a quesadilla and added guacamole, when i came it was more like a sloppy wrap. it wasn’t flat and crispy, it was sloppy, oily and squidgy - and the guacamole has been added inside rather than to the side? it was very messy and hard to eat. no distinct mexican flavours, just goo really. my husband ordered the standard burger (i forgot the name) and he didn’t have much to say about it but he said it was nice. i did order a cookie sandwich which was YUMMY (but of the vegan cookie sandwiches [that seem to be trending] i’ve had it sits towards the end) my husband had a chocolate eclair but again said was ok, but the ‘pastry’ part felt like it was just bread? overall the food didn’t make me want to eat there again but they do have wonderful staff, welcome dogs, and a wide variety of stock you can buy in store to take home. i’d day it was fairly busy inside but not so much that we couldn’t find a seat.
Read morePros: variety of options, super junky if you’re into that, lovely staff
Cons: super junky if you’re not into that, food felt a little meh, fairly busy and crowded

Yum! - Edit
Great junk food, friendly place. I had the nachos with extra guacamole, which was big and delicious. A little vegan haven in the centre of Bemi.

Good vegan versions of fast food classics! - Edit
We worked our way through nachos, hell dog (beware- super hot!), burger and doner kebab. Tasty in an unapologetically junk food way. The burger and dog would have been nicer if the buns were toasted. There is also a small but well stocked grocery section.

Okay for Vegan Fast Food - Edit
I feel as though this place is slightly confused with what it actually is... They serve Fast Food Style meals but also sell Cakes & are a shop.
Read moreThe Food was okay (not many Gluten Free Options) shame that they don't do chips!
The Cake that was available on the day was nice but I didn't like the filmy 'butter' icing used & for that reason I didn't finish it.
The place does seem popular though as there was a large queue.
In all honestly wouldn't return again
Pros: it's Vegan
Cons: not sure about the layout / type of vegan place , Food could be better

A must on the Bristol Vegan food list - Edit
I have read about Vx on Happy Cow and was really looking forward to actually go there and try their amazing food. Truth be told, even though I love salads with the healthiest toppings in the world, I will never say no to a fast food place. Especially when it's vegan. And they are open about it as the menu is marked fully vegan - Yay! I went for Vx Burger with cheese (it had a pickle in it, which was fantastic, and came with spicy tortilla chips on side - lovely combination), my partner had a wrap which was massive, we also had two sausage rolls, coffee and Karma Cola to drink and bought Vegan éclair for pudding... Now if this is not vegan heaven, then I don't know what is. Also, they have very well stocked fridges with vegan cheese, milk, meat substitutes, salad dressings (including Blue Cheese Salad dressing that I cannot wait to try) and many more. There is frozen selection as well. Absolutely in love with this place, and they have a store in London as well, which is going to be my next destination.
Read moreP.S. Éclair wasn't the only pudding available. There were cakes and muffins on top of cakes and muffins, you could pick and choose, all properly displayed.
Pros: Fully Vegan Menu, Not expensive, Amazing food
Cons: Why not open more Vx Stores, let's say in Reading?

Go Vego! - Edit
This amazing vegan junk food place is a real find in Bedminster in Bristol. I'm complete addicted to their Vego milkshakes. The burgers even taste like a Big Mac! It's great to have a shop in the store. I was really delighted to see them at Bristol Pride this year and enjoyed two of their delicious wraps. An absolute must.

Great Milkshake Donut - Edit
After one of our Cardiffian vegan posted the mega milkshake with a donut, we decided that we had to go there someday and well yesterday was the day! After sight seeing the beautiful scenic Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol we went over to VX Bristol for Lunch.
Read moreI have been to several restuarants and never tried a milkshake like this one. We ordered the Vego hazel nut mega milkshake with donut, the Supersize beef kabab wrap and the Quasadila. We loved the milkshake with the delicious warm donut on top. We have never had something like that before and I so want to try the special Vanilla one with a donut next time. The Quasadila and wrap however were a bit disappointing and need improvement with taste and presentation. I found the tortillas used to be quite dry and the use of foil unnecessary. I prefer wraps to be sealed and held on its own. I have high expectations from Vegan organisations. I expect the food to be the best.
I am happy to find out that they make use of compostable straws, encourage the use of reusable coffee cups and I have recommended that they consider a foil alternative to be more environmentally friendly.
They do have gluten free wrap option. They have a little shop in store where they sell some vegan groceries like cheese, icecream, frozen items, etc. About 20 people can sit inside with another 10 outside.
Overall I do recommend the place for the amazing desserts and that it is 100% vegan. Be sure to visit them when you are in Bristol.

Shop is great! - Edit
I regularly take trips to Vx for use of the shop section alone, you can get so many hard-to-find goodies like Amy's mac and cheeze, soy whipped cream, loooads of meat and cheese subs! The cafe is great too and relatively cheap.
Read morePros: Cheap, Sell all kinds of vegan goodies

very dissapointed - Edit
Came to check this place out first impressions were not good. Poorly laid out tables and chairs. Very dark, humid and no real lighting and ventilation so too warm. Although staff did seem friendly and there was a good selection of drinks and snacks. The food itself was not well presented and overpriced. No value for money. I paid 5/5.50 for a box of nachos which looked unappetising with an a tiny scap of what appeared to be lettuce. Been to vrevolution in Manchester and burger lols in Sheffield which were better value for money and looked a lot more appetising and impressive. My partner got burger and a few nachos for about around 5 pound which looked plain and bland didn't come with fries. We've made better at home. Didn't find anything special about this place other than the very cute dogs in there. Wouldn't recommend unless you want to pay over the odds for really bad food.

oh that burger... - Edit
That burger is amazing, I chose ketchup, mustard and sweet chilli, soooooo goood... shame they don't do real fries to come with the burger.
Read moreThe focacia bread was sooooo gooood too... I am addicted now to that place and must go back.
The doughnuts are just the best I ever had in all my life.
The coffee with peanut butter (uhhh peanut butter in coffe???) was delicious.
Disappointed with the éclair, it was made with bread dough, not pastry.
And there was a cream cake that was just bland.
All in all very good.
Staff is very friendly and chatty if we speak to them :)
Pros: Burger, Focacia bread, Doughnuts

perfect for the vegan on road - Edit
This place was just ideal for a quick grub up and had loads of take out snacks, sanwhiches, fake meats and cheeses, aswell as sweet snacks like cookies and muffins. Some cool merchandise is also available like mugs and fridge magnets. Met with kind staff. Cool and quirky, a great spot to chill out or take out.

Perfect! - Edit
This place is perfect! Unbelievably delicious, high quality food which tastes like the non vegan versions but better. Stupidly cheap and a huge choice! Cakes, cookies, merigues, pies, tarts, burgers, burritos, kebab, barbeque wraps, a range of ice creams, quesadillas and a range of other things are on sale along with stocking SSOV merchandise and vegan products from across the globe! (including foreign cheeze!) Definitely go if you aren't a health freak or have non vegan friends who want to learn... Hehe.

love this place. ? - Edit
Staff are mega friendly and helpful.
Read moreI take my girls in here (my eldest calls it the unicorn cafe) ??
I love the savoury tart and cakes !! The almond latte is also a favourite of mine.
Very dog friendly too. Took my ?? in and they enjoyed the fuss.
The only thing that's missing is an option of sides - sweet potato fries or a butternut squash salad, but that's being mega fussy.
Will continuing visiting at least once a week.

Vegan junk food - Edit
We were recommended to try Vx when visiting Bristol. I was surprised at the location, it's not central to Bristol city centre.
Read moreThere's a varied menu available but not extensive choices. We opted for the loaded nachos, hot dog and kebab wrap. Service was extremely quick. All were fine, it's quick, filling, vegan junk food and doesn't pretend to be anything else. I took away some cake, determined to not miss out. The cakes here are huge!
I was expecting a wider range of goods for sale. But picked up several different vegan cheeses I hadn't seen locally recently. Prices seemed a little bit higher than other stores I frequent.
Staff were great. Friendly, welcoming and attentive.
Pros: Very quick service, Staff
Cons: Location , Prices a little higher than other stores
